Tuber Policies, Information, and FAQs

A note: The farm and business are owned and operated by me. While I have occasional help from my family, almost everything is marketed, shipped, delivered, grown, and sold by me. In opening our tuber shop for the 2024 season, I have tried to create policies which make it possible for one woman to do all the work by herself. I love my flowers, and I want you to love your flowers too. I’m sure I haven’t thought of everything, and I ask for your grace in the process of making a business that works for you and me. 

Stock: We will be restocking throughout the fall and winter, and adding new varieties as we go. Sign up for our mailing list for updates!

Origin: All of the tubers are grown by me.

Location: We ship tubers to the contiguous 48 United States. 

Shipping Date: Shipping will begin when our location is no longer expecting frost. This is around April 20. Your shipping date will be determined by your zone and frost date.

Shipping Costs: Please select the correct shipping or pickup option when you are checking out. 

Pickup: Free

1-5 Tubers is $10.00.

6-19 Tubers is $17.50.

20-30 Tubers is $25.00.

30+ Tubers: Will be invoiced separately.

Pickup: Anyone who would like to pick up their order is welcome to do so. This fall, we will be offering tuber pickup on December 2nd, from 10-3, in Carnation, Washington. Spring pickup details are TBD. 

Tuber guarantees: We send out tubers which have at least one eye, and are not rotten upon pickup or packing. If the Spring-Shipping tuber you ordered doesn’t survive the winter, we will offer you replacement options, including alternate tubers or store credit, before shipping out your order. If we don’t hear back from you within a week, we will replace the tuber with a tuber or tubers of equal value.

Taxes: WA state customers will be taxed 8.7%. 

Combined Shipping: We do not combine shipping. We would love to, but we don’t have the staff for it. 

Pricing: Each dahlia is priced based on data found on Dahlia Addict, which is a fantastic resource for the dahlia community. I take a look at the maximum, minimum, and average price of each farm-grown dahlia, and usually aim around the average. I also consider how common the dahlia is, how much the stock is worth to me, and how much stock of that particular dahlia I have. I try hard not to undercut my tuber-selling compatriots.
